"[Makrides] has masterfully presented a history of the religious cultures of Greece from antiquity to the present. Few scholars today would have the courage, let alone sufficient knowledge of the sources, to present a panoramic synthesis of so huge a topic..." -Vasiliki M. Limberis, The Journal of Religion, "Provides a careful new look at the palimpsest of Hellenism and Christianity over the long course of Greek history, revealing the immense complexity of the religious cultures of Greece. The book is at once a valuable contribution to the comparative study of religion and to our understanding of Greece's dense religious history." - K. E. Fleming, author of Greece: A Jewish History, "Until now no one has written a comprehensive, synthetic history of the religious cultures of Greece. In this deeply learned book, Vasilios Makrides presents a brilliant analysis of the complex, multifaceted and intertwined history of Hellenism and Christianity. Hellenic Temples and Christian Churches is a tour de force of a book that is now the foundational text on which all future research will be based." -Thomas W.

The book is at once a valuable contribution to the comparative study of religion and to our understanding of Greece’s dense religious history." - K. E. Fleming, author of Greece: A Jewish History, "Makrides... makes available to students and scholars alike a comprehensive and comparative study of the religious history of Greece; his nondogmatic, scholarly study is a major contribution to intellectual history and to the academic study of religion.

The book is at once a valuable contribution to the comparative study of religion and to our understanding of Greece's dense religious history., [Makrides] has masterfully presented a history of the religious cultures of Greece from antiquity to the present. Few scholars today would have the courage, let alone sufficient knowledge of the sources, to present a panoramic synthesis of so huge a topic..., "Vital for understanding the legal process and the moral standard of law enforcement. An excellent read and a harsh glimpse at what the future might hold for the fabric of our justice system. A must have for the urban reader." - Immortal Technique, hip hop artist and President of Viper Records, ("This is a useful book that can be read with profit by practitioners, scholars, and the general public.")-( Choice ),(), "As [Natapoff] reveals in this scrupulously researched and forcefully argued new book, our system of rewarding criminal snitches for information, is a 'game without rules,' played almost entirely in the shadows and off the books. . . . Snitching is a highly readable, provocative argument for reforming a system that allows our machines of criminal prosecution to commit near-criminal acts of compromise." - Dahlia Lithwick, senior editor, Slate, "The first synthetic survey of a complex plurality of voices from antiquity to the present; it is broad in scope, rich in detail for every period, and theoretically challenging. Like the Greek tradition itself, it builds bridges between disciplines that have for too long remained separate." -Anthony Kaldellis,author of The Christian Parthenon: Classicism and Pilgrimage in Byzantine Athens, Until now no one has written a comprehensive, synthetic history of the religious cultures of Greece.

Because it is clearly written and carefully argued, it will draw the attention of scholars of both ancient and modern Greece. Summing Up: Highly recommended., Natapoff does a good job of explaining the law that governs the use of informants, and of describing how the all-too-rare regulatory schemes, such as FBI guidelines, work. One would expect this much from any law professor; Natapoff, however, goes much further. One of the truly impressive contributions of the book comes in her explanation of the effects of widespread use of informants for the criminal justice system, our social structures, and our democracy... If it simply described [the] dramatic downsides in order to properly tally both benefits and risks of informant use, Snitching would be a very successful book. But to her credit, Natapoff does more than just catalogue these problems. She gives us a comprehensive picture of what we must do to make the use of informants acceptable within our criminal justice system... Alexandra Natapoff had produced a useful, timely, and important book. Snitching should find a place in every law school course looking at legal issues in the criminal justice arena, and on the syllabi of every university course in criminal justice that aims to give students a realistic and nuanced view of how the system really works. Natapoff's observations, as fair as they are, may not sit well with those committed to getting the bad guys at any cost. But that is the book's real gift: showing us what that cost is, and suggesting ways of constructing a system of criminal justice that accurately mirrors the values to which we aspire., "[T]hought-provoking. Natapoff…offers the most up-to-date and trenchant analysis of 'snitching' in the criminal justice system [and]…insightful proposals for reform…. Th[is] impressive text make[s] important substantive and theoretical contributions to the scholarship on race, class, crime, and the legal system."- Du Bois Review ,, "The first synthetic survey of a complex plurality of voices from antiquity to the present; it is broad in scope, rich in detail for every period, and theoretically challenging. Like the Greek tradition itself, it builds bridges between disciplines that have for too long remained separate." - Anthony Kaldellis, author of The Christian Parthenon: Classicism and Pilgrimage in Byzantine Athens, ("Makrides... makes available to students and scholars alike a comprehensive and comparative study of the religious history of Greece; his nondogmatic, scholarly study is a major contribution to intellectual history and to the academic study of religion.

Synopsis
Covering an expanse of more than three thousand years, this title charts the history of Greece's religious cultures from antiquity all the way through to present, post-independence Greece., Covering an expanse of more than three thousand years, Hellenic Temples and Christian Churches charts, in one concise volume, the history of Greece's religious cultures from antiquity all the way through to present, post-independence Greece. Focusing on the encounter and interaction between Hellenism and (Orthodox) Christianity, which is the most salient feature of Greece's religious landscape--influencing not only Greek religious history, but Greek culture and history as a whole--Vasilios N. Makrides considers the religious cultures of Greece both historically, from the ancient Greek through the Byzantine and the Ottoman periods up to the present, and systematically, by locating common characteristics and trajectoriesacross time. Weaving other traditions including Judaism and Islam into his account, Makrides highlights the patterns of development, continuity, and change that have characterized the country's long and unique religious history. Contrary to the arguments of those who posit a single, exclusive religious culture for Greece, Makrides demonstrates the diversity and plurality that has characterized Greece's religious landscape across history. Beautifully written and easy to navigate, Hellenic Temples and Christian Churches offers an essential foundation for students, scholars, and the public on Greece's long religious history, from ancient Greece and the origins of Christianity to the formation of "Helleno-Christianity" in modern Greece., Covering an expanse of more than three thousand years,Hellenic Temples and Christian Churches charts, in one concise volume, the history of Greece's religious cultures from antiquity all the way through to present, post-independence Greece.
